"KNEEL BEFORE STEEL!"

Nicole Hawking aka Doctor Steel is a supervillain of the tech genius type. She's not that impressive to look at
normally, you'd mistake her for a mid twenties or so geek if you saw her in civilian attire. The red hair might catch
some eyes if she's remembering to take care of it. But Nicole is someone who is easily pre-occupied by her scientific
pursuits at the price of her appearance and regular meal times and honestly a bit socially awkward as Nicole.
And were it not for a series of events that began with a thieving academic supervisor she'd have remained that awkward
nerd slaving away making scientific breakthroughs.

In her disguise, robotic minions and first confrontation with a street level hero who'd responded to the break in
though Nicole found something liberating.
Nicole found out how much fun it was to be a supervillain.

Doctor Steel was a bombastic persona, a liberating mask that unleashed the confident fearlessness she needed to chew
scenery and grand stand in her quest to conquer and control.

As Doctor Steel she'll be found wearing a face concealing metal mask that comes with a variety of features such as
communication, augmented vision, protection from toxins and concealing her identity and voice. She accompanies this with an
armoured bodysuit, the sheer theatricality of a cape and a raygun with a variety of firing modes.

But that's not what makes the Doctor dangerous. What makes her dangerous is her robots, on any caper she'll be
accompanied by her robotic minions for a solid mastermind style of supervillain. Her robotic minions come in a variety
of forms but tends towards a retrotechnological aesthetic like they raided the props department of a 50s sci fi.

In addition to her robots she has a variety of other interesting technological gadgets and schemes, most prominent
are her teleportation system and her most stalwart companion the AI supercomputer Prime.
